First, add the $5.99 Tmobile web to your service plan(may take up to 24hours to apply). Then:(note, these instructions are directly for the Tmobile Dash, but the settings are the same on all phones for the hack to work):

In Settings/Connections/GPRS/T-Mobile Data: Tmobile Data
Connects to: Wap Network
Access Point: wap.voicestream.com

AND add another GPRS option:

T-Mobile Data2
Connects to: Work
Access Point: wap.voicestream.com

Then create TWO Proxies:
Settings/Connections/Proxy

First Proxy:
Name:Tzones Proxy
Connects from: WAP Network
Connects to: The Internet
Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080
Type: HTTP

Second Proxy:
Name Tzones Proxy2
Connects from: Work
Connects to: The Internet
Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080
Type: HTTP

In connections, click menu, then advance and set ALL connections to AUTOMATIC

To get the Exchange Server working:
(Exchange Server settings)
Options/Advanced
Connection: Internet

To get Pop mail accounts working:
(This will need to be done for each account you have)

Options/Account settings/Advanced Server Settings
Network Connection: Work
NOTE! The option to select which way to connect isnt available until you finish creating the POP account (go back in and change to: Work)

To get IE working:
(In IE)Menu/Tools/Options/Connections
Check "Automatically Detect Settings"
Select Network: WAP Network

I've done this on my dash and its working great. I'm not restricted to tmobiles stupid internal website.

I'm currently testing to see if I can send text messages over the GPRS at no cost. If so this will allow me to eliminate my additional text message plan. This will offset the $5.99 for the internet.

Tmobile once locked this workaround down, but within a week they received so many complaints that they decided to open it back up. $5.99 extra is better then losing customers, right?

Let me know if you need any assistance and i'll do my best to help you out.
